Sean Goldrich, a former standout at Notre Dame-West Haven, threw two touchdown passes in his collegiate debut. Goldrich's teammate at ND, Rob Bowman, started on the offensive line for New Hampshire. Below, read the article posted on the University of New Hampshire website. 

Worcester,  Mass. - The University of New Hampshire football team scored touchdowns on back-to-back drives of 98 yards and 95 yards in the second half to pull away from Holy Cross for a 38-17 Thursday night victory in the season opener for both schools at Fitton Field.

The Wildcats (1-0, 0-0 CAA) outscored the Crusaders (0-1, 0-0 Patriot League) 19-7 after halftime and amassed 531 yards of offense (279 rushing, 252 passing) to improve to 11-3 all-time in season-opening games under head coach Sean McDonnell.

Sean Goldrich (West Haven, Conn.) shined in his collegiate debut, completing 21 of 31 passes for 193 yards and two TDs. The redshirt freshman added a team-high 71 rushing yards on 10 carries.

On Wednesday, I did video interviews with Notre Dame-West Haven's Rob Bowman and Sheehan's Brett Biestek moments after they signed National Letters of Intent.


Due to technical difficulties (the video camera ran out of batteries), the Bowman interview was cut short. Bowman will play at New Hampshire. Biestek will play at Fordham.

As expected, Notre Dame-West Haven lineman Rob Bowman signed a National Letter of Intent to play football at the University of New Hampshire. Bowman made his decision in August.

Bowman was a Register All-State and All-Area selection while leading the Green Knights to an 11-1 record, the Class L state title and the No. 1 ranking in the final Register Top 10 Poll.

Bowman joins the New Hampshire program that went 10-3 in 2009 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the FCS playoffs. It was the sixth straight time that New Hampshire qualified for the playoffs. The Wildcats have won 10 or more games four times since 2004.

Teammate Dom Diglio decided on Wednesday to sign with Southern Connecticut St. Diglio chose the Owls over the University of New Haven. Diglio was also a Register All-State and All-Area selection.

"SCSU was the right choice for me," Diglio said. "I grew close to the coaching staff during the recruiting process. It is close to home and a successful program."
